Reshared Post — Katie Joy Self-Care Blog

https://katiejoyhealth.com/blog/selfcare-series

I first learned of Katie Joy through a photography series she did, My Anxious Heart, visualizing depression. In many ways her initial post is what gave me the nudge to begin blogging my own “The Long Road” story.

One of the most difficult parts to depression is finding the drive to take care of yourself. That sounds trivial at first but the harsh reality is during the worst of it, you don’t feel any self-worth, doing every day tasks to keep your hygiene going drop off. If living ceases to be enjoyable why bother doing the things needed of life right? It’s a painful and stealthy downward spiral.  Katie is well spoken and very candid. I recommend giving her blog a once over.
